Bourns Announces Versatile Square-Package Air Coil Inductor Series Featuring a High Q Value and High Self-Resonant Frequency

New air coil inductors meet today’s high-frequency application demands for enhanced signal filtering, efficient energy transfer and tight inductance tolerance

RIVERSIDE, Calif., January 29, 2026 – Bourns, Inc., a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components for power, protection, and sensing solutions, today announced its AC3028SQAC5037SQACXX14SQACXX15SQ, and ACXX18SQ Series Air Coil Inductors. The five new series deliver High Q and high self-resonant frequency (SRF) with tight inductance tolerance that enables designers to meet ongoing demands for smaller, faster and more compact electronics. These new air coil inductors feature a square package design with a flat top and bottom that streamlines reliable pick-and-place assembly while providing superior mechanical stability.

Other significant features of the five new inductor series include high Q values up to 230, with inductance ranging from 5.5 to 82 nanohenries (nH), making them ideal for today’s high-frequency TV and radio receivers, radio transmitters, RF amplifiers and tuning application designs. In addition, Bourns AC3028SQ, AC5037SQ, ACXX14SQ, ACXX15SQ, and ACXX18SQ Series Inductors have a tight tolerance of 2 percent and 5 percent, with DCR values that range from 3.4 to 12 milliohms (mΩ). These air coil inductors offer rated current values from 2.7 to 5.6 A and feature an operating temperature range of from -25 °C to +125 °C.

Bourns AC3028SQ, AC5037SQ, ACXX14SQ, ACXX15SQ, and ACXX18SQ Series Air Coil Inductors are available now and are RoHS compliant*. For more detailed product information, please see: bourns.com/products/magnetic-products/air-coil-inductors.
